So shall our song of triumph ever be:
praise to the Crucified for victory!

O bless the LORD, my soul
His blessedness proclaim;
Let all that is within me join
To bless His holy name.

O bless the LORD my soul,
His mercies bear in mind;
Forget not all the ways in which
He has to you been kind.

He pardons and forgives
All your iniquities;
He from each sickness makes you well
And heals you from disease.

He purchases your life
To raise you from the dead;
A crown of mercy and of love
He places on your head.

John 4

I believe in God the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ,
His only-begotten Son, our Lord,
Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried.
He descended into hades.
The third day He rose again from the dead.
He ascended into heaven and sits
at the right hand of God the Father Almighty.
From there He shall come to judge
the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.

Beneath the cross of Jesus

 I find a place to stand

 And wonder at such mercy

 That calls me as I am

 For hands that should discard me

 Hold wounds which tell me come

 Beneath the cross of Jesus

 My unworthy soul is won

Beneath the cross of Jesus

 His family is my own

 Once strangers chasing selfish dreams

 Now one through grace alone

 How could I now dishonor

 The ones that You have loved

 Beneath the cross of Jesus

 See the children called by God

 Beneath the cross of Jesus

 The path before the crown

 We follow in His footsteps

 Where promised hope is found

 How great the joy before us

 To be His perfect bride

 Beneath the cross of Jesus

 We will gladly live our lives

I stand amazed in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene
And wonder how He could love me
A sinner condemned unclean

How marvelous how wonderful
And my song shall ever be
How marvelous how wonderful
Is my Saviour's love for me

For me it was in the garden
He prayed not My will but Thine
He had no tears for His own griefs
But sweat drops of blood for mine

In pity angels beheld Him
And came from the world of light
To comfort Him in the sorrows
He bore for my soul that night

He took my sins and my sorrows
He made them His very own
He bore the burden to Calvary
And suffered and died alone

When with the ransomed in glory
His face I at last shall see
'Twill be my joy through the ages
To sing of His love for me

Lift up your hearts to the Lord
Praise God’s gracious mercy!
Sing out your joy to the Lord, whose love is enduring.

Shout with joy to the Lord , all the earth!
Praise the name above all names!
Say to God, “how wondrous your works,
how glorious your name!”

Let the earth worship, singing your praise.
Praise the glory of your name!
Come and see what God has revealed,
bless God’s holy name!

God’s right hand made a path through the night,
Split the waters of the sea.
All creation, life up your voice:
Our God set us free
 
Listen now, all you servants of God,
as I tell of these great works.
Blessed be the Lord of my life,
 whose love shall endure!

Luke 18:31-43

At all times I will bless the Lord
And ever praise Him with my voice
My soul will make its boast in God
The humble hear it and rejoice
I sought the Lord in darkest night
He saved me by His glorious might
O look upon His holy face
And let your gloom be turned to light

O lift Your voices praise His name
The Mighty God has power to save

O magnify the Lord with me
Let us exalt His name together
O magnify the Lord, O magnify the Lord with me
O magnify the Lord with me
Let us exalt His name forever
O magnify the Lord, O magnify the Lord with me

This poor man sought the Lord on high
To save him from his bitter plight
Then God arose with outstretched arm
To save him and to win the fight
The mighty angel of the Lord
Surrounds His saints and bears His sword
O fear the Lord upon His throne
For He will come to save His own

So let us all lift up His name
For God alone has power to save

Refrain

O taste and see that God is good
May every blessing come to you
How wonderful
How precious is His grace

Though lions lack for want of food
The Lord will give you all that’s good
For those who fear His holy name
Every blessing they will claim

O magnify the Lord with me
Let us exalt His name together
O magnify the Lord
O magnify the Lord with me
 
(repeat)
 
O magnify the Lord with me
Let us exalt His name forever
O magnify the Lord
O magnify the Lord with me
